Billy Idol gets it...

I'm having a difficult time with people. It seems that no amount of diplomacy or compromise can keep them from eviscerating my, already tenuous, grasp on a sense of self worth. It's not even that they are being especially mean spirited, well, one of them is. It's just that I'm tired of people not getting IT and, by extension, not getting ME. It's a really lonely feeling. Whiney, whiney, whine, whine. No, forget that. That paragraph sounds weak and stupid. Forget you ever read it.
